What pictures are you planning to do next Kevin? If you'd like my suggestion, then I would say to go for a complete set of conics - Specific diagrams for Hyperbola, circle and ellipse and one general diagram containing all the four. TheOriginalSoni ( talk) 11:15, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
Did anyone ever get back to you on Template talk:Topicon#New icons? If not, my suggestion would be that you start a discussion at WP:VPM, and then link to it from Template talk:Pp-meta, Template talk:Featured article, Template talk:Good article, and Template talk:Spoken Wikipedia. I think the new icons are cool, but they'll need a fair amount of discussion first. (You might also want to take a look at the previous icon discussion on the Pp-meta talk page, though that was about adding to the images, not simplifying them.) Good luck, and feel free to drop a note on my talk page if you start the discussion. (I'm also toying with the idea of switching to them on Wikidata, where they're rather in keeping with our overall aesthetic theme.) — PinkAmpers & (Je vous invite à me parler) 17:52, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
I was talking to TheOriginalSoni and he redirected me to you. I was needing some help with U2 Wikiproject: I need to improve its Barnstars. Can you help me on that?? Reply at my talk page. Kind Regards. Miss Bono (zootalk) 16:07, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Hey there, I was recently, chugging through a few old physics notes, and then I thought, hey, who do I know, with a graphics eye, could possibly diagram, the theoretical model of a Higgs Boson......SO, I read the wiki article..AND it would be a jaw dropper to have a graphic representation of the theoretical concept of one......merely a thought. Could be fun.... Coal town guy ( talk) 15:23, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
This request is NOT urgent. I thought I would go to the best Graphics guy on Wikipedia! ......but, he was busy...so, I wonder..."Are you busy,too?"... :~)...The R & R Team @ WER never got of the Drawing Board...see its brief history here. I am convinced I can relight whatever little ember may still exist. So when those other two editors say they will re-enlist, it would be great to have a logo already in place and ready to go. Whatever you come up will be great. I trust your genius. BTW...I think the working relationship you and Coal town guy have is awesome. 2 EotW's working to improve the Encyclopedia. Awesome!! Thanks for all you both do. ``` Buster Seven Talk 20:40, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
Hi Kelvin, you are adding some quite amazing material to Chloroplast, it is incredibly much better than it was before you started! In your latest addition there is a sentence that I think is a bit unclear: "Chloroplasts may be sorted by origin among multiple offspring.". What do you think of this: "Among multiple offspring the chloroplasts that survive in each individual may have originated from either or both parents."?

About the image that you added, I found it a bit confusing at first, apparently because in the upper part there is a label "tracheids" that caused me to wonder how you know they aren't vessel elements. Is there a way to be sure that is what they are? I wonder if "tracheary elements" would be less confusing. P.S.: wikipedia seems to lack coverage of fibre cells.

Hey,
Aaron has been working on Snuggle for some time now, and he has already got a prototype ready. But the current palette of colours he has got for the boxes is not very good. Ideally the different namespaces on Wikipedia must have different sets of Non-Green, Non-Red colours so they arent confusing. I wonder if you could help by helping us choose the right colours?
Thanks in advance! TheOriginalSoni ( talk) 21:38, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Just so you know, sandbox pages for proposed article redrafts are not allowed to be kept in articlespace, but have to be created in an internal project namespace such as Wikipedia: or User: — accordingly, I've moved your chloroplast sandbox to User:Kelvinsong/Chloroplast/Sandbox. Thanks. Bearcat ( talk) 01:47, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
The images you've produced for molecular biology are great artistic renditions of the subject matter. I like how the images about mechanisms walk the viewer through each step in the process with a sentence or two describing what's going on. However, in articles like transcription or translation, I think having lower-information-density images than File:MRNA.svg and File:Protein_synthesis.svg in the lead would be much more helpful to readers. (With their current level of detail, those images seem better suited for the body of the article.) Have you ever considered making much simpler and more glanceable introductory images for those subjects? Emw ( talk) 14:49, 27 April 2013 (UTC)
Hi K:
You edited the "parabola" article to put the first diagram above the first text, saying that doing it otherwise wastes valuable space. But in fact the waste of space is negligible, and the value of space is zero.
I did have a good reason for putting the text first. If you Google "parabola", you'll seee a quotation of the very beginning of the article, which, as it is, doesn't mean much because it's the caption of a diagram. Putting a meaningful sentence before the first diagram should fix this, when Google gets around to catching up.
I haven't reverted your edit. Doing so would look petty and silly. But I do suggest that maybe you should revert it yourself. No?

Wikipedia is not your personal playground. If something about the new diagram is incorrect we can work together to fix that, otherwise the new image will remain. Shep Talk 01:29, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
